remember to drain the gearbox oil first lol

as above, insurance on my 182 converted van is cheaper than any of my 182s were!

the block looks the same to me apart from the oil feeds for the turbo coming out the block, Head looks the same too except it uses an aluminium rocker cover vs the plastic one on the normal D4F. Inlet manifold is of course different, plastic on the D4F but aluminium on the D4FT. I believe it did...

Easy job if you have a smashed tce to swap it over to, do it in a morning. You can't just buy the turbo and bolt it on though as your question seems to be asking about

I complained from new that an LSD would really compliment my 220 Trophy as I was suffering from the front end washing out mid corner, 10k miles on the clock the front SuperSports were shot so I replaced them with a pair of PS4 (reluctantly, I wanted to keep it on supersports) and they were night...

they never seem to come up in good condition 2nd hand. RenaultPartsDirect list them on their website but they are not cheap! most are secured with cable ties these days

Yeah no problem

I love iceberg silver, reminds me of my first car! ive got a pair of factory rear lights in good condition with all the bulbs and bulb holders etc, yours for £20 posted!

not all ph3 had them for some reason there must have been a cross over, my ph3 1.6 16v had a facelift front end, digital dials but a tunerlist cabasse from the factory.

as above not needed unless you were making an air tight seal around the filler hole when filling it. later cars had long breathers, some of the 1.2 16v ones came up and clipped onto the battery tray at same height as the top of the battery.

its jumped up in price, tbh mine is a few years old and I was going to order a new one as a spare as ive used it hundreds of times and its been spot on but at that price ill just hold off lol

brilliant, be interesting to see if it gains much midrange.

Ive got the shinemate which was the cheapest cleanyourcar had when my PC went up in smoke. I think it was sub £100, big benefit for it was the lack of weight, its perfect for doing vans and bigger motors as its so light!

YES!!!! do it! how easy is it to get a maxi kit for it though would be my first question?

Awesome mate!! Looking forward to seeing this done. Wish I had powdercoated my subframe now

just cut and weld on the k4m flange?

got another couple of hours on the van today. Managed to swap over the 182 brake master cylinder, ABS System and the brake lines and calipers then the lower arms, hubs and discs. hoping tomorrow to get the 182 ARB swapped over then bang the engine back in. The plan was to rebuild it replacing...

no factory fitted alarm, no window etching, no locking wheel nuts is usually the giveaway

That 182 I'm re shelling into the van is a heap but I thought at least it's low miles at 60k, until I realised it's got a 172 breather setup, damn.....

Of the 3x 182s I've owned, 2x had 172 engines, one was a heap and one was a minter you would never have expected. And ironically of my 4 172s, 2x had 182 engines!!

I wouldn't imagine it would be too hard, ive never seen both side by side but id imagine the subframes are the same/similar so it would just be a case of swapping the engine, box, driveshafts, suspension, hubs, brakes/master cylinder and ABS then the rear beam over, depending on if there is a...

In that case it might have been an update list from factory sorry I thought you said it had a tuner list previous. 54plate is right around the changeover my 1.6 16v was a 54 plate facelift and had an update list cabasse

as above if you have a tuner list you can only use tuner lists, and vice versa

fuel

Love a black ph1, miss mine! Can't beleive it's still running the standard exhaust!!!

not bad, yeah be interesting to see what different ratios were available as I know both our dci 90 clios had a different ratio box from each other lol

they are spot on for VW stuff especially APR as they are putting quality maps on. I was looking to have my new DCi Clio remapped, the wifes car was done by Superchips via Bluefin but they don't support the Euro6 ECU in the facelift cars yet, I done loads of research on where to get it done and...

quality, love it! appologies I dont know a great deal about them is this one of the RWD ones or were they FWD by this point? go well for a bit barge? easily tuneable?

good work, how much difference did the 5th gear change make at 70mph?

seems EFI is about the closest highest regarded place. Ive used EcoTune who advertise that they should be able to do a job like that but tbh id rather upload a TomTom map of Belgium to my ECU than one of their maps after my experience getting a STANDARD car mapped.
